Many applicants believe that simply telling their story is enough to obtain asylum. However, immigration authorities consider not only the fact of persecution, but also the reasons for it, the supporting evidence, conditions in the country of origin, and whether the case meets the legal requirements.
Even serious circumstances do not automatically lead to approval. The sequence of events, previously submitted documents, records of visa interviews, border crossings, and other details that may seem insignificant at first can all be important.
Preparing an asylum case requires not only an understanding of the law, but also a thorough review of the applicant’s entire immigration history. The more complete and consistent the presentation of the facts and evidence, the better the case can be properly evaluated.
